I remember someone was looking for a Note 2 portable stand. I just got this one for my Nexus 7, but it works great for Note 2 as well in both landscape and portrait modes. VERY sturdy design, and folds nicely into a compact stick. High quality construction, lightweight, and will work for any large phone and tablets from 7" to 10"+.
http://www.arkon.com/tablet-accessories/tablet-stand.html - and you can actually get it at Amazon for $8 plus change where it has over 1k reviews with an average 4.75 rating.

I was just getting stands for my kids tablets, and went to order more Arkons stands from my above review. Been using those for Note 2, Nexus 7, and noticed my wife using it for cook books. These holding up really well since March and took a lot of kids abuse. Its on amazon for $7.15, great deal I thought to share with you guys.

I can back this up. I have one of these and although it isn't the smallest, it's fantastic. very stable and adjustable for a wide range of sizes and positions. I have had it for over a year and travel daily with it. I'm not gentile but not abusive. It's well worth the money IMO.
Nift idea. Have one for my tablet but never thought about using it for my note ii.
Btw, as a warning. Make sure when you shop on Amazon you check who is the actual seller. It gets so confusing with different choices. Apparently there are counterfeit Arkon stands sold under the main listing from other suppliers (especially from sellers in China). Those come in a white box with some graphics on it. These knock offs are of a poor quality. The real Arkon product will come in a clear package. I didn't even realize that until start reading some of the comments on Amazon and contacted Arkon with a question. That's how I learned about knock offs

Does anyone make an armband for the thunderbolt so I can wear the bolt when I exercise? I've looked around a bit, but not found anything that will fit my giant phone with extended battery and seidio case.
not just that, but i want a freakin' wrist band for the Thunderbolt.
just like how i wanted a wrist band for the ipad.
would that not be awesome !?!?!....
Yeah. I bought mine on Amazon. It wasn't that much and it works. Definitely not the greatest quality out there but it does the job.

I wish but I assume HTC has given up on the Thunderbolt products.
I'm thinking about getting one too. I don't even use my ipod anymore since I got my Thunderbolt. I would like to have it right there to listen to music while I'm running. I need to get back into shape!
From the Sensation boards:

Arkon's XL-Armband fits the Sensation. I have one with the Incipio NGP case and it fits with the case on.
We designed the armband to fit most pones with screen sizes from 3.7" - 4.3". I've tested it with the Sensation as seen above, Thunderbolt (with TPU case), Droid 3, Droid X 2 and a couple others and they fit.

$17.95
*Sorry for the annoying servo noise, I had to use a DSLR to record the video since I was using my live Sensation as a model and the auto focus was on :\

The armband case that you seek is this one!
I bought the TuneBelt from Amazon for like $20 before the holidays. It keeps my phone safe, sweat free, and you can even buy a little extender belt if you plan on running with heavier clothes on like a sweatshirt. Great buy!

Nice!! I have been looking for one for the gym.
Have been using this mount for a little over a week and can say that it is awesome. The thing I like the most is the mount. It is sticky and mounts to almost any surface, even the rounded portion of my dash. It does get dirty and needs to have some water run over it every once in a while to clean it off. The part that holds the phone is hard to use one handed, but holds the phone really well. It opens up to hold any phone and mostgps units. I picked this up on amazon for just under 20 bucks.

Looks good, but larger pics would help!
I guess this is the mount?

For the price it wouldn't hurt to try it out. I should be getting it tomorrow.

That's the mount.

Does the mount show in any part of the camera\video view?
Just tried it. The mount does not show up on the screen when taking video or pics.

I got the mount on Saturday. I think it works pretty well for what it was worth. It definitely requires two hands to take in and out. It seems to hold pretty solid on the dash.
Sorry the pictures aren't that great. They were taken with my Thunderbolt.
just wanted to add I have this mount and have been using it with no problems. I also have a nook tablet that I put the suction cup on the back of and clip to the headrest to let my daughter watch movies for long trips. Its very versitile.
Just tossed one of these in favor of the Samsung mount. Much easier to work with.
Bad experience!
Bad experience!
I bought this car mount 32 days ago & It's already broken!!
I used it in my car for a Galaxy S2 device with a sunlight protector (as was recommended on exogear's site).
For the record, I'v been known for my gentle treatment for all of my things, in particular, the technological one's.
The damage was a broken grip (the one that holds the cell-phone), just near the red rubber.
Be careful guys\ladies - waste of 30$.
I just found this new dock. It looks neat and cool. It should fit the S3 just fine.

looks like amazon sells it also.

There are 51 reviews, average of 3 out of 5 stars.
As a previous owner of the dock, I recommend staying away. As you can probably tell by the pictures, the dock is unstable and tips easily. But to make it worse, they only put a rubber grip on the back but not the front, leading to a lot of sliding around. Not to mention the rather high price tag. Avoid if you want an actual functional dock.

Yeah I was wondering about stability when I came across it a while back... Plus (at least in the UK) the only available colours I saw at the time were black or white

Only I prefer a universal one now, who will also work with a (alu) case.

Nice vid mate. What case is that BTW ?
That dock is smooth looking. Might have to pick one of those up. Good video, thanks.
Here is the case I have: http://www.amazon.com/Kickstand-Hyb...86218&sr=8-46&keywords=samsung+galaxy+s3+case
I would not recommend it unless you are looking for the cheapest thing out there with the highest impact resistance. It is very difficult to remove, the outer gel doesnt line up exactly with the inner hard case. It reminded me of the otterbox cases for the 3gs Iphone, but it is made very cheaply. You can even find some for a penny plus shipping on amazon. People are trying to get rid of them. Not bad price if you are willing to pay a penny plus shipping

Hey Guys,
So I've been searching around the web for a case for my Samsung Galaxy Note II and I came across the one made by Samsung. It seems to me that it's one of those style over functionality products. It's nearly $30-$40 and I'm trying to justify if it makes sense buying it.
Let me know what you guys think!

I was hoping there will be a smart case, whereby each time you flip open the case, the screen will be turned on.

Yeah its kind of like the iPad smart cover... However, less dangerous and more practical...
I found a 50% off accessory coupon code RE167858P. Treated myself to a Note II Case and a 9000MAH Battery Pack!!! $49.99 for a battery backup was a steal!!!
:highfive: :victory: :highfive:
Official accessories almost always very expensive. Companies have very high margins on them, because that's where people will look first to buy. So I would suggest to search for some alternatives from 3rd party companies.
